Frequently asked questions

What is the break-even point?

The point where total revenue equals total costs — beyond it, each additional unit sold is profit. It's calculated as fixed costs ÷ (price per unit − variable cost per unit).

What counts as a fixed cost vs. a variable cost?

Fixed costs stay the same regardless of how much you sell (rent, salaries, insurance). Variable costs scale with each unit produced or sold (materials, packaging, per-unit shipping).
